What stinks is a military on American soil aiding and abetting any Executive Branch to exclusively create law, a president determined to fight forest fires by raking leaves and a Senate leader whose faith in his assumption that, southern conservatives are easily duped, is so firmly grounded, he unabashedly exhales the foul air of denying a president his constitutional right to appoint a Supreme Court Justice.
Sometimes, truth must hurt before we rise from the stink, clinching a swinging pendulum, recognizing life, and lives, are our constant balancing act, between good and evil:
- Abraham Lincoln 11/19/1863 v. Jim Jones 11/18/1978
- Author of our Declaration of Independence, selling his darker children
Often, we act out by tipping life's scale from, Home of the Brave glory to aromatic delusions of grandeur; from honoring those who delivered on, greater love hath no man, to passing on standing up for veterans on hallowed ground.
But the wave of reason exposes The Right's treason.
Some, presidents delegate government's raison d'tre to preserve, protect and defend to money men -- but nothing stinks like The Wall Street Putsch - a plot by super wealthy Right-Wing bankers and corporatists, conspiring to enable Wall Street and the Pentagon to form a more perfect union, considering Fascism, Communism and Nazism as viable solutions to 1933 Hoovervilles.
Although Russians have invaded our electoral process for an administration comfortable with suppressing voting privileges, alienating NATO allies and denying refugee asylum -- all while attempting to placate Turkish dictator Erdogan by offering up his longtime political clerical foe as consolation prize for forgiving a Saudi hit on an U. S. resident.
Fortunately, our, Free Press has rediscovered the cost of freedom is, investigative reporting -- because the only change that changes anything is change, we make in ourselves:
- Reagan made a deal with Iran not to release American prisoners, so he could defeat Carter - just as Nixon colluded to prevent LBJ from getting two Vietnams to talk peace
- Bush/Cheney created The Great Recession while Obama bailed out their Too Big to Fail banker cohorts -- and Middle America is still paying the tab
- Mega-donors, Anna Chenault and Miriam Adelson deposited America in the out-houses of Richard Nixon and Donald Trump
- Former World Patent Marketing CEO, Matt Whitaker, ensconced in FBI investigations into his alleged scams and threats with potentially serious civil or criminal consequences -- smells like perfect sewage treatment plant for, obstruction of justice
Perhaps our savory 2018 sweet, was simultaneously voting for Progressive issues and Liberal Democrats -- despite Georgia's candidate who purged the voting power of more than a million citizens, now imbibing its state mansion with the rot of a festering cyst.
What saves America from the prejudicially aromatic Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith welcoming a front row seat to a public hanging, adding, maybe we want to make it just a little more difficult for those Liberal folks from those other schools, to vote -- her now facing the fragrance of a justice for all, runoff -- without Walmart.
America's breath of fresh air is: the pungent maneuvering of repetitious perversion of justice puncturing America is easily avoidable -- when we concede to our mirrors, we who buy stocks in the puppets of corporate vampires, are what stinks America most.
It's not just Corporatism, but corporate individuals whose exhilaration from a soaring personal bottom line is more delicious standing on the backs of customers racing to over consume; not just the trumped, but predatory pick-pockets polluting patriotism with Roger Stone, JUUL and unaffordable health-care.
Life is more than the prize of one electoral victory -- It is the journey waking us each day -- for victory is not just for the swift, the new or the young. Victory, like honor, comes with learning and sharing in a refreshing marriage embracing the reason that willingly blossoms when the dirt of bullying bigotry, nepotistic hypocrisy and prejudicial obstruction are shaken like dust, from our roots.
With freedom of choice, every new dawn, invites every American into the arena, empowered by the courage of Admiral McRaven, tenacity of Stacey Abrams, determination of Beto O'Rourke, resilience of Jon J. Whelan, vigilance of Laura Hughes and the commonsense to not throw out experience with the soiled water.
Rejecting the repugnant waste of being a fractured people, let us, on the shoulders of Liberty, recast our national aura - purging all parings of poisonous stink - seizing instead, daily moments of vision as America's most heroic bouquet.
